Abstract
Eleven species of Adelencyrtus Ashmead and five species of Epitetracnemus Girault (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae) are reviewed, keyed and illustrated. Adelencyrtus biannulatus sp. n., A. orientalis sp. n., A. noyesi sp. n., Epitetracnemus reni sp. n. and E. bandus sp. n. are described. Adelencyrtus antennatus Compere & Annecke, A. coxalis Hayat, Alam & Agarwal, A. moderatus (Howard), and A. odonaspidis Fullaway are newly recorded from China.References
